Chapter 20
Jen grasped the bed sheet that was over her naked body. Her eyes fluttered open as she felt for her husband lying next to her.
'Where is he?' She thought touching the empty space next to her. A breeze came in through the window and she got a sudden chill. Looking around, she noticed that the sliding glass door was open. Smiling to herself, Jen grabbed the robe that was on the chair and put it on, then walked out of the door overlooking the ocean.
"What are you doing up early?" Jen asked coming over to where Nick was sitting on a chair.
"Couldn't
sleep anymore." He replied grabbing her waist and bringing her down to
sit on his lap. He held her tight while they talked.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Smile now!!" The photographer announced. Jen and Nick posed together, each on a dolphin.
"Woah, this one doesn't wanna stop for anything." Jen screamed while she went on another wild ride. They've been swimming with the dolphins for an hour already, and their time was almost up. They have been in Italy for a week already, and only had three more days left.
Tonight Nick was
doing something very special with Jen. She didn't know anything about it, only
that it involved something with a bathing suit.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*3:30*
"Come on, I told someone that we'd be wherever we're going at 4." Nick grinned knowing Jen was getting anxious to know where they were going.
"Nick, why can't you just tell me?" Jen whined.
"Ohhh Poor Baby." He said coming over to her and kissing her lips, "You'll see when we get there." He chuckled to himself as she playfully hit him in the arm.
"Fine. Let's
go before I have a heart attack." Jen laughed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Okay, Bathing suit...boat. Are we going on a boat and going swimming or water skiing?" Jen asked as the taxi dropped them off at the dock. Nick shrugged.
"Nick Carter?"
"Lou?" The man nodded and they both shook hands. "This is my wife Jen."
"Hello Jen, nice to meet you." She shook his hand. "ALright, the boat is ready and waiting. Just be back by 11, thats when the shop closes.
"Alright, thanks." He took the keys out of the man's hand and led Jen to a nice boat, and helped her in.
They started up the engine and were out.
"Wow." Jen announced as the sun was begining to set. Nick had shut down the engine and threw the anchor out. He came over to her and wrapped his arms around her and leaned his head on her shoulder.
He started nibbling on her ear. Jen giggled.
"Wanna go swimming?" Nick asked. Jen nodded and they took their clothes that were ontop of their bathing suits off and went into the water.
Pulling Jen closer to his body, they began kissing. Wrapping her legs around his waist, Jen asked.
"Wanna try in water?" Without an answer she knew the answer. "Oooo, I guess that's a yes?" She asked touching his bulge in his pants. He nodded.
They somehow swam towards the ladder of the boat that came into the water and Nick lifted Jen up a bit and sat her on the last step. Both sliding each other's bottoms off.
"You are so
beautiful." Nick whispered out of breath. Jen looked at him and kissed
him harder than before. She played with his hair as they moved in sync.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here they were, heading home already. Of all the places they were at, they made sure to leave a trademark. Now that they were heading home, things were going to be different. They wouldn't be living in their house as boyfriend/girlfriend, but as husband and wife.
"Home Sweet Home." Nick sighed lugging the suitcases through the front door.
"Yep." Jen said after him. She walked into the living room and looked out through the sliding glass door that led out to the ocean. She yawned as she ran her hand through her hair. "I don't know why i'm so tired." Jen announced. Nick came over to her and wrapped his arms around her.
For so long, Jen's dreamt about this day. She never imagined that it would really exist, yet imagine who'd she'd be with. But, her life was the way it was, and she was happy with the outcome.

*2 yrs. Later*
"Jay honey, come on. We're gonna go visit Grandma." Jen announced coming into the backyard.
"Okay Mommy." He said running away from the dogs, eventhough they followed him. "No, No silly doggies! You stay here." Jen watched as her son talked to the dogs as they were people. "I'll miss you guys. Mommy, Me, and Daddy be back soon." He finished kneeling down and patting each other their pugs on the head, then stood up and took his mother's hand.

"Jen, come on sweetheart. Eat." Jane announced.
"I can't eat anymore, i'm full." Everyone around the table looked at her, including her husband, weird. There was a half a piece of chicken and almost all untouched veggies left.
"Baby, you hardly ate anything." Jen looked up to meet his eyes.
"I'm not hungry! When I get hungry i'll eat, you know that!" She replied in a louder tone, then got up from the table and walked into the guest bedroom.
She layed on the bed clutching the pillows underneath her head. She knew she hadn't been the same lately..
Nick came into the room, shutting the door behind him.
"What's with you lately?" He asked sitting on the bed. "You're not yourself." Jen looked at him, knowing that he knew something was wrong. Just the look in his eye gave it away. "Are you...?" He asked.
"I.. I don't know." She answered just above a whisper.
"Don't be afraid to tell me Jen. I think we need some more Carter's running around." He said touching her chin. She smiled. "Find out okay?" Jen nodded and they hugged each other before going back out to join the family.
